Hariri Meets Aoun, Saniora Says PM Seeking 'Consensus on New Govt.'
Prime Minister Saad Hariri on Friday held talks at the Baabda Palace with President Michel Aoun, as unprecedented anti-government protests rocked the country for a ninth day.
Hariri left the palace without making a statement.
Ex-PM Fouad Saniora meanwhile said Hariri “wants to reach consensus on the formation of a new government prior to the resignation of the incumbent government.”
TV networks meanwhile quoted al-Mustaqbal Movement’s political bureau as saying that Hariri’s resignation would be “political suicide.”
